As different individuals have different needs conflict naturally emerges. However, as your partner wants one thing, but you want another, and you want each to win, a psychological battle can follow.

Today more than ever, I see in my practice a dramatic increase in the number of couples with control issues that becomes detrimental to their well-being. This is why it is important to know how to deal with a power struggle and establish a win-win relationship.
